John Prine


Saw John Prine last night in Richmond, first time although am quite familiar with his music. He was teriffic, him with a bass guitarist and a lead guitarist. Sound was amazing, singing was greater than on disc. Worth the effort to see him when he is i your area.

I'm a huge John Prine fan. I saw him at the Philly Folk Fest a few years ago and agree, he does put on a great live show.

"Grampa`s on the front lawn staring at a rake
Wondering if his marriage was a terrible mistake"

Brilliant!
Good call on the lyric Hazard. One of his best.

"Mind all your manners, be quiet as a mouse,
one day you'll have a home that's as big as house"

I had an elderly couple as neighbors for years. Every time I listened to Prine sing "Hello in There" I wanted to go across the street and chat. Prine is a remarkable writer.
